I had a problem with starting Hitman Absolution, now it has been fixed thanx to Square Enix technical support.

SOLUTION : Uninstall COMPLETELY Bitdefender 2011, if you have another antivirus, try to completely uninstalling it. Creating an exception rule was not enough in my case, again, I completely uninstalled my Bitdefender Total Security.Thank you Square Enix for your fast and quality support! You care about us!

isita spider i think that i know why this wont work because you ave an i5 and this game requires an i7 for all you others out there to so your pc probably cant handle it sorry to say i am not sure but its a possibility

I maybe have a solution that might work.

On Steam : right-click Hitman absolution gameClick on properties then go to local files, lastly click on Verify Integrity of game cache...

Then the problem is on Square-enix side or steam side. We should wait 1 or 2 days for patches maybe just like Aziranov said
